Shoes? On a Hacker? That’s just crazy talk, I’m never going to be able to equip this thing… but I totally can equip a big pile of flezz. Figuratively speaking. Not actually equipping it. But I would like a big pile of flezz, just so we’re clear.

So take up this wonderful opportunity right now, and form an orderly line leading into a desperate pit of frenzied bidding to secure your next pair of shoes ahead of time.

IOU’s haven’t been selling for very much lately, since the item itself is most likely not going to be worth that amount when it comes out.

I was taking my pricing cue from the Portable Hadron Collider IOU auction (sidenote: I’ve got the other one of those too, but I’ll be hanging onto that because it could actually be useful for me, anyone who wants IOU for that will need to go bid up mterek’s auction)

In the event that no-one wants it at this price I can always try again, the listing fee isn’t exactly small but it’s less than I’ve wasted on Blackjack to get Antifreeze this week, so it’s not going to hurt… or I might hang onto it, I’m crazy and unpredictable that way and anyone who craves certainty should go and place a large bid while they still can.

As I see it, the unanswered question is how easily available these things are going to be in Ep3 – maybe they’ll be in the clbum stores like anything else, but given their slightly special status (coming from buildr instead of CZ) they might be rarer than that (see also: Master Balls the first time around). As far as I’m aware we don’t know this, so someone could want to snag an IOU to make sure. For my part, I’m entirely willing to receive a fat stack of flezz from just such a someone.

ghax was the biggest buyer, so there’s been a major leftward shift in demand.

5 hour mark. The apparent lack of interest continues

I’m going to be getting this back aren’t I… no point fighting it I suppose.

Unless there’s a sudden rush of last minute bids, or mterek already bid enough to beat the reserve Log in to see images!

If it doesn’t sell right now wait until after the podcast. If Evil Trout confirms the Episode 3 items are going to be ballbusters I think that’ll drive up sales.

Or if he confirms that prices are going to be scaled appropriately with current items, interest will drop to 0. Because who wants to spend upwards of 3 million on something which is likely going to cost you a lot less?

The one thing would be whether we can keep these IOUs as unique items. I personally would love to do that with mine.

I don’t think that will be possible. The IOU’s occupy the same slots in the database that the items will, which is why that incident with swine happened and why you can equip them right now as well.
